We had the chance while in Myanmar to visit a house church during their weekly ABC class. ABC Bible Curriculum is a 2-year program that we use to train believers, making them strong in their faith and preparing them to share the Word of God with others.
On May 2nd of 2008, the beautiful nation of Myanmar (also called Burma) was hit by the deadly Cyclone Nargis. More than 138,000 people were killed and 2 million were left homeless.
Some children in Iraq only remember a life on the run from the Syrian Civil War. It’s been five years since the war broke out when pro-democracy demonstrations were violently suppressed by the government led by Bashar al-Assad.
For most of us, the Syrian refugee crisis is overwhelming, multifaceted, and hard to understand. Many people are filled with questions and a desire to help, but it can be hard figuring out exactly where to start.

The Lord is actively moving all across the country, and despite opposition from the Chinese government, people are receiving the gift of salvation on a daily basis by the grace of God working in the lives of Chinese believers. It’s estimated that 15,000 people come to know Jesus every day in China, and these people need to be discipled.
The winters can be cold and dreary in China. Every year about this time we shuttle in and out of communities throughout the country, under cloudy and rainy conditions, meeting pastors and believers in homes, offices, hotels and coffee shops. We huddle together with our Chinese team planning the expansion of the ABC Discipleship Training and Missions Training Programs for the upcoming year, while keeping a low profile.
